    Okay that just cracks me up. Collin you are a grown up version of my youngest daughter! You crack me up with your dancing style with the hula hoop! My daughters loved the video and we all were glad you shared it. My youngest reminded me about the time you and your sister did the grocery shopping video and you were in the buggy. We look forward to the videos. I hope you have a great vacation! 🙂

    I KNEW it was the Northwest the moment I looked at it. I grew up in Oregon, on the border of Idaho and Oregon.

  12. Lynette

    I love your site and your videos! Enjoy the vacation. I love the porch/car seats by the way. Very creative, and hey lots can happen on the backseat of a car!

  13. Sandy

  15. Nichole

    I just wanted to say that I had that castle also when I was younger. Too bad we moved around so much and it wasn’t really a priority to keep things that we had grown out of.

    Collin that was just great!!!! Thanks for sharing, it was great to see you having such a wonderful vacation 🙂

  16. Jaden

  20. Maria

    I love the swings. Enjoyed your vacation.

  21. Lisa

    OMG! I have that same castle too! I loved it. It was one of my favorite toys and one of the very few that I kept for my kids and now I have it for my grandkids. You can’t beat Fisher Price Quality. Too bad they don’t still make things like they used to. That view was beautiful. Glad you are having fun and relaxing!

  22. Nikki

    Collin, we have missed you! I don’t care if every video on your site helps to save us money, I enjoy just watching you enjoy yourself and be silly. Thanks for showing us a little more of your world!

  35. Beth

    🙂 Ok Collin, You can tell your mom and stepdad that they did an awesome job of making the porch swings!! My hubbie and i LOVE them. They are VERY VERY unique. 🙂

    • Collin (Mrs. Hip)

      I LOVE their porch swings! I had my Aunt add this item to her garage sale/free cycle list of things to look for.

      Told my husband about the idea…let’s just say I’m still working on selling him on it (lol)

  36. Anna R.

    That was really funny. Stepdad has the moves! My mother-in-law did the same thing with my husband toys. My kids always love going over her house then my mom’s house…cause she has TOYS and they are different. Have fun with your family!!!

  37. Collin (Mrs. Hip)

    Thanks for taking the time to put out a video on your vacation!! Many blessings on your time there in Idaho!!!

  38. patricia groh

  39. judy

    LOVE your site and your step dad is a GREAT dancer. I wanted to bring something to your attention. I watch about 4 other sites besides yours and I know you are GREAT at helping people. If you go to ConsumerQueen.com and see her tragedy maybe you and your readers could help their situation. Just watch the video,it’s a tear jerker.

  40. Rachel

    I love you!! Will your family adopt me? You guys look like you always have so much fun!

  41. Lynn

    The swings are great. I do have to say only in Idaho! I moved to Coeur d’ alene Idaho 4 yrs ago from CA and LOVE IT. It’s so beautiful and relaxing.
    You’re the best Collin.

  42. DV

  49. 1buzymom

    Thanks for sharing your vacation with us. What a lovely spot to be in. Enjoyed seeing the room of toys and I’m glad to see that I’m not the only one saving her children’s toys for future grandchildren. LOL. Love the dancing on the deck and had to laugh at you hula hooping. That’s my favorite exercise these days. It’s great on the waistline. Enjoy your vacation. I look forward to checking back in with you next week. 🙂

  50. Ktongg

    Ok, so funny!! I was going to guess that you were in Idaho. My grandparents live in Ketchum, Idaho about 200 miles southeast of Ola and we grew up going there every summer or Christmas. Looks like a fun place!! I love the idea of saving all your old toys.
